Williams fires back at Aikman

Tony Romo was throwing to Williams when Eagles CB easily picked off the pass late in the second quarter. Romo underthrew Williams, who didn’t come back to fight for the ball.

“I respect the man and his three, four, five, seven rings or however many he has,” Williams said. When I turned around, the guy had the ball. So I don’t know what happened. But I hear on TV that Troy Aikman tried to blame it on me. And that’s not me.

“I’m a guy that stands up. I stand up for my mistakes. But I didn’t have a mistake on that one.”

Three weeks ago, Jason Witten took the blame for the Romo interception Pittsburgh returned late in the fourth quarter for the winning TD. But Williams didn’t follow the tight end’s lead, throwing Romo under the bus.
